The Lion Sisters are a sibling duo from New Hampshire whose music is defined by the natural synchronicity that comes from growing up and creating together. With Josi on fiddle and vocals, and Lily on guitar and vocals, their tight harmonies and effortless onstage connection form the core of their sound and set them apart in the modern acoustic landscape.
Their music blends folk and bluegrass with Irish fiddle, vintage country, and subtle pop and rock influences, creating a style that feels both rooted and refreshingly original. Rather than fitting into a single genre, The Lion Sisters have shaped a musical identity that is distinctly their own—warm, melodic, and contemporary while honoring traditional acoustic foundations. Their debut EP, released in January 2025, consists of six original songs recorded by Nashville music producer Jim Prendergast.
Raised on a small family farm surrounded by animals and open fields, the sisters draw inspiration from the natural world and their rural upbringing. The farm remains an authentic backdrop to their creative life, adding depth to their songwriting and visual storytelling.
This past year, they performed throughout New England, at festivals such as Ossipee Valley Music Festival and Joe Val Bluegrass Festival as well as numerous concert series and coffeehouses. Supported by a close-knit family team, they bring professionalism, authenticity, and a clear artistic vision to every stage.
With their signature sister harmonies and genre-blending sound, The Lion Sisters continue to emerge as a notable new voice in today’s folk and acoustic music scene.
